Can liquor that has been stored for 10 years be drunk? Does liquor have a shelf life? It is recommended to understand before storing wine

Liquor in our country has a history of thousands of years. People have already learned how to make wine when they were immature in various aspects in ancient times.

At that time, the white wine brewed with grain was fragrant. From the kings and generals to the Li people, they all liked to drink.

Because wine has a certain storage ability, it is also very popular in ancient times to store wine, mostly for one's own children and grandchildren or to prepare for their birthdays in decades.

For example, daughter red and champion red and other old wines will be fragrant and fragrant when the jar opens.

This custom has been spread to the present, people have the habit of storing wine, and the saying that wine is the fragrance of the old has gradually spread. Preserving wine can make wine more fragrant and delicious.

But here comes the problem. Most foods are clearly marked with the expiration date to warn them. Why is the liquor not marked with the expiration date? Can liquor that has been stored for 10 years be drunk? It is recommended to understand before storing wine.

First of all, the shelf life of food is not written as you want, or if you don’t want to write it, don’t write it. It is stipulated in the relevant standards of the liquor industry that beverages with an alcohol concentration of more than 10% need not be marked with the shelf life.

Most of the liquors we usually see exceed this concentration, so the liquors on the market have almost no shelf life.

But there is no shelf life, which does not mean that liquor can be stored indefinitely.

The factors that determine the storage time of liquor are divided into external factors and internal factors.

The external factor is the storage condition of the wine. Anyone who has stored the wine should understand it. After it is sealed, place it in a cool, dry and ventilated place, without frequent movement during the period.

The most important thing is actually the internal factor, that is, the quality of the wine.

Not all liquors are suitable for long-term storage. Alcohol blended wines, low-alcohol wines, and inferior fake wines are not suitable for long-term storage. The stored liquor is generally grain wine made from solid-state fermentation of pure grains.

So can liquor that has been stored for 10 years be drunk? This question is scored. If it is pure grain wine, it can indeed be drunk. If it is non-pure grain wine, it may not be consumed in less than 10 years. Some of the wine will become weak, and some contain peculiar smell or harmful substances. .

Understand the question of whether you can drink, the next thing is the taste of wine.

Good-quality pure grain wine is indeed more fragrant as it is stored.

The ancient daughter red (yellow wine) can be stored for 20 years and the aroma is compelling, which can explain the problem. You must know that the rice wine is fermented wine , the degree is not high, it can be stored for 20 years, and the quality is definitely the best select.

Many rice wines are actually difficult to store for so long.

Let’s go back to white wine. White wine is distilled spirit . Its high alcohol concentration is its characteristic, and its advantages are obvious. If it is brewed from pure grains, it will be icing on the cake. The quality is better. It has not been stored for ten or twenty years problem.

However, aroma and taste cannot be generalized. White wine and red wine have an optimal drinking period (drinking period).

Most pure grain wines are stored for more than 8 years,The taste will decrease, and the acidity will be heavy, making it difficult to drink. Generally, such old wines are used as seasoning wine .

If storing wine is not for drinking, but for the appreciation of collection, then you must choose high-quality pure grain wine.
